A Name and a Story,

II find these army names,n said an old
lndianian, sticking to good many men
in public life, and wherever I find the
name 1 find story. Over in my old district
is a man called Sandy. To the ordinary
observer there is no reason in the world
for the nickname and no appropriateness
in it. But In one of the very earliest
skirmishes of the war he was on picket
duty and was directed to get as near the
Confederate line as hecould. He crept up
to within few feet of the vedette post of
Confederate pickets, and quietly digging a
hole in the sand he burrowed there until
nearly morning listening to all that was
said. When he came back to report he
n st have shaken two or three quarts of
sapd from his clothes and his shoes, and
tke boys gave him on the spot the name
of Sandy. 1t stuck to him through his
army career, and now that he is in public
life he is still called Sandy. Inter Ocean

rhi.x.. I'm the British Museum.

Something ought to be done to guard
against the consequences Of the sudden
collapse of the electric light at the British
museum reading room. An accident Of
this kind was threatened two or three
weeks ago, and last week it came of in
earnest. The room was plunged in dark
ness for some minutes, and in the confus-
ion which followed there would have been
no difficulty In any Of the two or three
hundred readers present eloping with
what books or other portable property
they could lay their hands on. This is
not an Imaginary danger. It is well
known that some Of the readers at the
British museum 60 there in pursuit of
other things besides knowledge. An at
tendant there once told me that many of
them would steal anything that could be
carried away. 1t has been found useless
for this reason to provide soap in the lava
tories, and the nail brushes have to be
chained up. Even the rollers upon which
the towels hang have been stolen.-Lon-

thy martyrdom. Thou shalt enter at last into the

AMUSEMEN
A Double Attraction.

At the Thester last night the James
Wainwright Dramatic Company gave
Gretchen and Tanning of the Shrew be.
fore a large and fashionable audience.
All the prosGenium boxes were filed
and the attendance of ladies was unu-
sually large. Gretchen, a version of
Faust by Gilbert, was the opening
piece and was most sttractively pre-
sented by the company. Mr.. James
appeared as "Mephisto," Mr.. Mosby
as "Faustus," Mr.. Huebner as "Gott-
freid" and Miss Wainwright as "Gret-
chem" the other roles were OF minor
importance, but were ecceptsbly filed.
The play, while not az strong or
dramatic as Faust, is quite an at.
tractive production. Mr.. James
and Miss Wainwright were ex.
ceedingly effective and pleasing
and were repeatedly compelled to
come before the curtain and bow their
Acknowledgements in response to the
applause Of the audience. Mr.. Mosley
and Mr.. Huebner, the "Faustus" and
"Gottfried," shared in the ovation.
The audience enjoyed Gretchen ex
ceadingly, aud were in thu humor to
laugh at the Shakespeare comedy,
Tanning of The iShrew, which followed,
and with Mr.. James as "Petruchio"
and Miss Wainwright as Katherine"
both characters were amusingly pre-
sented, although not as strongly as
they have heretofore been given be-
fore audiences in this city. At the
matinee today Much Ado about Nothing
will be the attraction, and tonight
Julius Caesar will close the engage
ment.

The Derby betting,

Wednesdays Louisville Times gives
the following gossip concerning Ken
tucky's great blue ribbon event:
The latest odds on the Derby re-
ceived at the Turf Exchange this
morning chow some marked changes.
Goliah is now strong favorite, being
cut to 8 to |, while the odds on Jim
Gore have been heightened to ID to l.,
The others who are placed at 20 to l
and less are as follows: Montrose IL
to l, Alcalde 10 TO l, Duke Of Bourbon
Is to l, Laredo 15 to l, Libretto 10 to
/, Poteen 10 10 l, Pendennis 15 TO l,
Silver Bow 10 to !, Rightaway 20 to 1,
Nick Firser 20 to /, Carey 20 to l, Ban
Yam 20 to /, Banburg 20 to l.
OF these Goliah, Montrose and Ban
Yam have been backed the strongest.
In the past week considerable money
has also been placed on Nick FINER,
and the odds have been materially
lowered. This is due to the wonder.
fully improved condition Of the colt,
who seems to have fully recovered
from the distemper, and is daily gain
ing in condition. The fact that Mont
rose is being backed all over the
country shows that q great many
besides his owner think the colt will
win.
PeHdennis and Carey have been cut
several times in the odds, and con-
siderable money has been laid on
them. The former ia brown colt by
Virgil, out OF Persia, and is owned by
Baldwin. He started four times last
year, but WAS never first. The best
position be occupied in any of the
races was fourth, go that there is alb
solutely nothing in his public per-
formanGe to justify the conf lence in
him. He is said to have developed
wonderfully since last fall, and those
connected with the stable think very
well of him.
Carey is bay colt by King Alfonso
dam Miranda, and ia the property OF
Ed Ccrigan. He started ten times
last season, and won but a single race.
That WAS the Mechanics stake, three
quar- ers OF mile, at st. Louis, when he
bsat Montrose, Laredo and several
others in :l9S in the rain.
The odds on the Suburban handi-
cap received this morning also show
some important changes. fremont,
the Dryers great year old, ia not
now a strong favorite. The odds on
him have been increased to 10 to l,
and Blue Wing has been cut TO like
figure from 80 to l.! The other two,
who have been backed strong, are
Electric and Exile, both being placed
at 20 to /. The records OF all the
probable starters in this race have
been reviewed at length in this paper
recently.
There is a growing belief among
turfmen, especially in this section OF
the country, that the Suburban will
never be won again by Western

THE SPORTING EVENT.
CORRECT ORIGIN OF THE BALD.
WIN CHALLENGE
To James Murphy, to Race VOlante
and Montana Regent
Turf Tips.

1t is more than likely that the race
between Montana Regent and Volante
will be run over the Latonia course,
as the owners OF the respective horses
have not ceased to agitste the question
OF a contest. Several versions OF the
origin OF the challenge have been pub
lished, but none oftbem were correct.
The true facts, as cleaned from parties
In a position to know, and which ap.
pear in the Spirit Of the Times tf today,
are as follows:
When Mr.. Murphy bought Montana
Rege mt at Lexington, KY, paying $l0,-
0W for him, some one remarked,
as the animal was led from the
stable, that 1t was an exorbitant
price. The new owner did not see it
in that light, and asked:
"Whst can beat him In the Louis
vile cup2"
McClelland, whose son is Baldwin's
trainer, replied, Lucky Baldwin will
beat you"
Murphy asked, "what with ?" and
McOlelland answered, "Volante."
Murphy said he would bet from
$1,000 to $4,000 thai he would beat
Baldwin's entry in the Louisville cup.
This conversation, il is supposed,
McOlelland wrote to his son. Bad
win, in challenging, spoke Of Muir
phys boast about Montana Regent,
whereas such boast had never been
made ex ept for less distance-two
and .qusr,tr miles. Notwithttsnd-
ing this, Baldwin, in his challenge, no.
served the right 10 name the distance,
which, as everyone familiar with rae
ing ep1rts knows, would be one mi Q
and half.
In reply TO the challenge Murphy
wrote Us follows to the Spirit Of Lhe
Times, and which also appears today:
In reply to your challenge pub.

This was the original proposition OF
Mr.. Murphy, to rua cup distance,
and nothing else. This effort OF Bald

half is characterised by turfmen rs un-
fair. Murphy, however, in order to
make the race over the Memphis

POLICE JURISDICTION
EXTENDED TO ONE MILE BEYOND
THE CITY LIMITS.
Railroad and Private watchmen 20
BE Supplanted by ReguIsr
Blue Coats.

President Hadden, at the ope ling
OF the Police Court yesterday, said:
81 have here Senate bill No. so,
which has passed both houses of the
Legislature and is now law. 1t au-
thorizes the Taxing District to employ
thirty addition policemen and extends
our police Jurisdiction one mile be.
yond the present limits. 1t gives the
police department the power to arrest
and fine parties for the violation of the
ordinances within this extended limit,
the same as those living in the city.
"rhe additional police are intended
chiefly to take the places OF railroad
and private watchmen. They are to
be paid by the parties who employ
them, any deficiency in the cost to be
supplied from the police fund. They
will be under the sole control OF the
Police Department, subject to roll call
and assignment, and governed in all
respects like other members OF the
force. On the Goth instant the Chief
will call in the stars OF all the private
police or watchmen now out.
"The law doesn't intend that We
shall employ Thirty policemen all at
once. It's purpose is to withdraw the
power from private officers at present
employed. People who want special
protection must hereafter apply to the
chief for it. He will assign them men,
and the employers will pay for them.
BY this means we shall get more
policemen and not pay much for
them. The employers are not to
choose their men.
1.-THE extension OF the limits Is
merely intended TO stop Sunday base
ball games and prevent the assembling
OF crowds at the groceries in the
suburbs on that day. The new limits
reach the Curve and beyond the
Marlne.n Hospital, andlitaks ini Vance
and Dunlapsstreets, and 10 away out
to Wolf river,
1.-THE new law was passed at The In
stance OF residents of the suburbs be-
yond the old corporation line, The
enforcement Of it will not give as much
trouble thers as inside the city proper,
as the people of the locality will get
out warrants for the wrong doors.
1.-THE revocation of the private
watchmen's authority is due to the
fact that there has always been a
doubt as to their power to make ar
rests like regular policemen-whether,
for instance, they had a right to shoot
a man in the discharge OF their du ty."
